Dynamic Resiliency to User Assignment

چکیده
Nowadays organizations face fast organizational changes and employee turnover, e.g user are unavailable or they change roles because of a promotion, that might compromise the execution of a business process instance and, thus, the achievement of organizational business goals. In this paper, we investigate the problem of dynamic resiliency to changes in the assignment of users to roles. The goal of dynamic resiliency is to guarantee that when the assignment of users to roles changes during the execution of a business process instance, it is possible to find a user to perform the activities whose execution is still pending. We propose an approach to verify that the execution of a business process instance can terminate when there are changes in the in the assignment of users to roles.

Impact of Policy Design on Workflow Resiliency Computation Time
Workflows are complex operational processes that include security constraints restricting which users can perform which tasks. An improper user-task assignment may prevent the completion of the workflow, and deciding such an assignment at runtime is known to be complex, especially when considering user unavailability (known as the resiliency problem). Therefore, design tools are required that a...
متن کاملCOMPUTING SCIENCE Resiliency Variance in Workflows with Choice
Computing a user-task assignment for a workflow coming with probabilistic user availability provides a measure of completion rate or resiliency. To a workflow designer this indicates a risk of failure, especially useful for workflows which cannot be changed due to rigid security constraints. Furthermore, resiliency can help outline a mitigation strategy which states actions that can be performe...

متن کاملQuantitative Workflow Resiliency
A workflow is resilient when the unavailability of some users does not force to choose between a violation of the security policy or an early termination of the workflow. Although checking for the resiliency of a workflow is a well-studied problem, solutions usually only provide a binary answer to the problem, leaving a workflow designer with little help when the workflow is not resilient. We p...
متن کاملDifferent Network Performance Measures in a Multi-Objective Traffic Assignment Problem
Traffic assignment algorithms are used to determine possible use of paths between origin-destination pairs and predict traffic flow in network links. One of the main deficiencies of ordinary traffic assignment methods is that in most of them one measure (mostly travel time) is usually included in objective function and other effective performance measures in traffic assignment are not considere...
